New Poppy Rework could have been better

Passive it's just ok, it make her tanky and helps a lot on laning phase. Q it's fine for cleans, so it helps for clearings. That's what old Poppy needed. That's fine. That ultimate is an amazing tool for disengage and also can stun, I love it... But I'm here commenting because I see in that new Poppy some issues: Now I need to say the big problem I saw always with poppy. I never liked is old W, I would have combined his W and E and make a new engage tool for his W. I think the best way to actually make Poppy a great champs is moving the mov. speed utility to his E, and when you active the ability increase even more and more his movement speed (like Rammus) and after a few seconds she wins Charge (the bad think is this also will remember to Heca's E but not at all) and so... yeah, when more charge, more damage. I think this would make Poppy more funny to use and his E would be a better option for a engage, and the W would be for tank/disengage. Actually, you need to choose between resistances or mov.speed. And that's bad, so bad. This change on E I guess it could make a healthy play to Poppy (she needs some counterplay), she won't be able to Flash+E that often, because she need to run first. I still don't like at all his new W, making her a semi-Leona. But well, it's Poppy, so she need some tankyness and that new utility tool to negate dashes is great. This concept of mobile tanky-champion is good for new players, and I think with that new ult we will be able to see Poppy in LCS too. So I'm happy with this rework.

P. S: Hope you understand me, I'm an EUW gold Spanish player, but I needed to say this in NA forums.

I own all her skins, and played her... meh times, but I am glad the rework even happened! also, she has a fun kit (nearly for both teams, her ult is just funny but broken) and she is an actual champion now! not just a lollipoppy meme!

No, the Poppy rework should have been better. They've taken 6 years to get to it and it doesn't impress.

That said, using her W doesn't remove the passive armor/mr buff, and keeping the MS and charge separate is important for balancing her lane strength.

Actually I guess the rework it's fine. The main problem with Poppy it's Riot tried to make her an standart tank with some utility when a majority wanted a bruiser.
